The Supervised Experience in College Teaching course provides select undergraduate students with formal, supervised teaching experience in an Environmental Resource Management (ERM) course. Faculty recruit students who excel in a particular course to serve as undergraduate teaching assistants for subsequent offerings of that course. Duties may include serving as peer tutors, teaching assistants, or laboratory assistants, and developing and/or evaluating course activities and materials. Students participating in this course will develop a deeper understanding of the focus within the course material by actively helping to teach the material. The course is only available to students who are invited to serve as teaching assistants for an ERM course and enrollment is by permission of the instructor.
